I am starting to wonder if I have some sort of mismatch between my GHA file and my Diva version, though I'm not sure that would cause these kinds of problems.
Incidentally, I tried creating a brand new file and I get the same results. I cannot save anything with DIVA components in them, they disappear every time. :(
Speaking of 2.0, do you happen to know when that will be released?
Thanks,
Marc

ld work.
For example there's a grid shell and I've got a number of control points (for example 3) that can move up and down.
Depending on the control points I get forms that are structurally good and some that are bad.
In my office we've got a GH-Component, which leads the geometry in structural members and solves the structural forces and so on through an external Software called Sofistik and afterwards gives back to GH some Values, for example maximum bending moments. (Like Karamba)
Now I want to create this optimization component or something like that to minimize e.g. the bending moments in the given geometry.
Let's start with the work of the component.
So when I've three control points that can only move in z-direction.
P1(0,0,Z1), P2(10,0,Z2), P3(5,5,Z3)
They only depend on Z, so everything depends on Z1 to Z3 which have a range between 0 and 10 f.e.
First I want to get some (between 9 and 15) random Particles, one particle consists of this 3 different Z's.
So for example the first particle Part1 is [Z1=10, Z2=5, Z3=7]
and the second particle Part2 is [Z1=7, Z2=1, Z3=9]
and so on.
I created these Start Particles in a Cluster. See attached file.
I also tried this in C#, but thought it is easier in GH.
After I've got the Start Particles I want to give out the first particle and evaluate with its including Z's the target value in GH. Therefore I had to take the first branch and graft this branch (Discussion before)
Afterwards I want to save this Target Value that depends on the first starting Particle. Then I want to give out the second starting Particle to evaluate its target Value and store it. And so on till the last target Value of the last Starting Particle got assigned.
Then I want to assign the particles with its target values. E.g. part1: t=0.9, part2: t=1.8...
Then I want to define neighborhoods or the count of the expected local minima.
These neighborhoods can look like: Each neighborhood has to include not less than 3 particles. And the particles have to be next to each other.
E.g. if there are 12 particles and I want to have a look for 3 local minima, I need 3 or 4 neighborhoods. Then I would take 3 neighborhoods, because the more particles in one neighborhood, the better.
So the Count of the neighborhoods would be N=min{(Count of Part/3)& N_min}
How to define these neighborhoods I don't know at the moment. I think it has to be searched for the distance between the particles. E.g. part1 with (9,9,9) and part2 with (9,9,8) are next to each other but part 3 with(1,1,2) is far away.
Then each StartParticle is set to Partx_localbest.
And in each Neighbourhood the best of these localbeststs is Part_NyBest. (The best ist the one with the smallest target Value)
Loop:
Now I want to create new Particles. These Particles don't change their Z-values randomly. They change their Z-Values depending on Part_NxBest and Part_localBest. Therefore it has to be evaluated a new velocityfactor with v_Partx_new=0,792*v_PartxOld+1,5*random(0,1)*(partx_localbest-partx)+1,5*random(0,1)*(part_NyBest-partx)
The new particles will then be partx_new=partx+v_Partx_new.
The new Particle partx_new will be set to partx and then set in the output.
then there has to be caught the targetValue of part1 afterwards part2 can be put out and its target value caught and so on.
Then it has to be looked for the Partx_localbest through comparing the partx_localbest and its target value with the new part_x and its target value. If the target value of the new partx is smaller than partx_localbest,
then partx_localbest is the new partx.
This has to be done for each partx. Afterwards the same for neighborhoods best (best of all partx_localbest in one neighborhood)
Endloop if velocity gets small.
Output all part_NxBest
Output all targetvalues of the part_NxBests.
So in the Input there have to be:
StartParticles if they are given through the cluster attached.
Device on the target Value like in the attached gh.file from David Rutten I found in the discussions
Count of neighborhoods
And in the output
Output particle for evaluation
Output all part_NxBest
Output all targetvalues of the part_NxBests
Hope didn’t forget anything. And hope it isn’t crushed to badly. Sorry for my bad English by the way ;-)
For more explanation, how the PSO works in other programs. There’s attached a workflow script (is it called like that?) I think for GH it should be a little bit changed like I tried in my explanations.
So if you can help me a in some parts or you have any advices would be great, otherwise thank you nevertheless!!!!
Thankfully there’s no limit for the words in the discussions :-D
Best, Heiko

Robert Stuart Smith of Kokkugiais a Studio Course Master at the AA DRL. Robert previously worked for Lab Architecture Studio and Nicholas Grimshaw & Partners. He focuses on self-organisational systems and developmental growth, pursuing polyvalent and environmentally responsive affect. He leads consultation to Cecil Balmond on non-linear algorithmic design research. Kokkugia has projects in the USA, UK and Mexico, and is exhibited and published internationally.
Iván Ivanoff is an artist, programmer, and researcher. He searches for new forms of communication for the society of the future and is the director of different Media Labs worldwide. He founded the artistic collaborative i2off.org+r3nder.net, which develops multi-media and interactive projects, and Estado Lateral Media Lab to investigate and develop new technologies.
The Barra Funda district of São Paulo was once characterised by a mix of small industrial, commercial and residential programmes, but, as economic policies have favoured larger production industries, numerous companies have abandoned the area. In response, the workshop proposes the creation of new types of smaller industries to produce a mix of both consumption and production, manifested through micro-manufacturing interventions that can co-exist alongside retail and housing. Computational design and digital fabrication could be used to help create these new micro-industries, which in turn will help empower local craftsman to produce and sell directly to consumers through micro-manufacturing, located in small urban workshops.
The workshop will tap into emergent gallery scene of Barra Funda and local initiatives that use computational technology to introduce a new cultural and economic impetus. The workshop is a part of the International Festival of Electronic Language (FILE), an exhibition of interactive electronic technology, and will import these electronic technologies out of the galler, collaborating with local manufacturers, artists, and activists, with a goal of disseminating a high-tech yet low-cost and small-scale fabrication systems to promote this new micro-industrial movement. The workshop is open to architecture and design students and professionals worldwide.…

ld see were the set of basic tutorials. I've run through a few other folk's video tutorials also.
The test case I chose, I picked because it is a super simplification of an actual space I'm trying to model (a large school sports complex - see below). Ive modelled it as a closed volume, with a few solid objects inside it, and it is a much less box-shaped space, with a ceiling that is not flat, and a significant lattice of acoustic panelling that encloses the roof trusses.
the volume of this space is around 50000 cubic metres, which if I followed the guidelines o0f 50-100 rays per cubic metre, would be 2.5 - 5 million rays. I ran a simulation on the test simplified box space with 100k rays, which took about 2 hours running on a macbook pro booted into windows. Perhaps I need to find a much more serious machine to run this on. would it be a reasonable assumption to think that as more rays are added, the results would converge on a particular solution? if so, if you had to take a guess, how many rays/m3 would be required to get a solid estimate of reverb time +/- 0.1s?
I don't mean to imply that Pachyderm isnt up to scratch - simply that I'm trying to find some way of determining whether a given set of simulation parameters are going to give a result that will be enough to make decisions about surface materials and treatments that will be required. I tried a bunch of different methods and simulation parameters to see if they were even remotely similar, and unsurprisingly, they werent. I'm not an acoustic engineer, I'm an architect who has studied some acoustics in addition to my regular subjects. I know enough to be dangerous, but I'm trying to convert that into enough to be useful. :). I'm totally open to any advice anyone might offer.
One last thing, could you confirm that the T-30 parameter is T-30 (and so needs to be doubled to get RT60)
Thanks for responding,
Ben

t'd be great.
I am trying in Rhino 5 and would like to understand where to get the documentation and get the feel for the differences.
Also, do you write such scripts directly in the component? Or elsewhere? How can one debug them?
Thank you for your help.

ask for some help and I sent the def to someone who tested the def out and made it work and send it right back to me and I got the same error I realized something wasnt right.
here some images of what the def does
Flat hexagonal panels over a given surface.
I get errors with the sliders and the VB script. Original script by Luis Fraguada from LAN then Davide del Giudice/ from madeincalifornia Checked out the definition because I have almost no knowledge with scripting and he made it work and sent those images back to me and this definition fixed, wich doesnt work on my computer and here some images of the problem.
